This is an ant, as seen through a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The SEM images were taken by Janet Steven and Gabriel Lane on an AMRAY 1810 scanning electron microscope at Sweet Briar College. The specimen was sputter-coated for 60 sec with Au/Pd at 50 mTorr and 40 mamp. Imaging was done at 3 KV. This panorama w...

This is a micro-gigapan of a small segment of the CCD (charge coupled device) image sensor from a Canon PowerShot G1. The CCD containes 3.34 mega pixels and the chip is approximately 8mm wide. In the process of trying to convert the camera to be infrared sensitive by removing the IR filter I managed to accidently cu...

This is a micro gigapan of a small spot of blood, which looks a little like our earth. The images were collected at ~2000x magnification. This Gigapan is part of the NanoGigaPan project. Which is working to take large pictures of very small things. Read more on the project blog at nanogigapan.blogspot.com

NWA7308 is an LL3 ordinary chondrite from North West Africa, found in 2012. The gigapan comprises 113 images taken on a Nikon D60 using direct eyepiece projection from a Zeiss microscope and luminar objective. The image was put together using PTGUI. ordinary chondrite: A major class of chondrites, distinguished by s...

This is the first attempt at a micro gigapan using an optical microscope with a digitally controlled xyz stage (Prior Scientific Instruments ProScan H29XYZE controller). I think the magnification is around 200x. The camera attached to the microscope was a Cannon G5 IS. I'm having some trouble getting the camera vie...

This is my second attempt at doing a micro-gigapan using an optical microscope and a computer controlled xyz stage. I think the magnification is near 200x. I managed to reduce the vignetting considerably, though it is still somewhat apparent in the unfocused background. Compare the optical to the scanning electron m...

This is an image of an ant holding a fly taken through an optical microscope magnified ~40x. It is a 24 image mosaic with some focus stacking. This is the same ant and fly that I have imaged using a SEM last summer, you can see that image here: gigapan.org/gigapans/28295/ In the SEM image the ant and fly a...

*Large prints available* (2 meters +) The underwing pattern is highly cryptic. It is conceivable that the eye pattern is a generalized form of mimicry. It is known that many small animals hesitate to go near patterns resembling eyes with a light-colored iris and a large pupil, which matches the appearance of the e...
